Using the Hybrid-GPS
NOTE
• You can delete recorded latitude, longitude, and direction data as required (page
109).
• Recorded latitude, longitude, and direction data cannot be edited.
• Shooting an image while on the move may result in incorrect position information
being registered with the image.
• The current “Record Lat/Long” setting is ignored while “Off” is selected for the
“GPS” setting (page 92).
• Note that location information recording is turned on under initial factory default
settings. If you do not want latitude, longitude, and direction data recorded with
image data, be sure to change the “Record Lat/Long” setting to “Off”.
• Location information is recorded along with any snapshots and movies you shoot
while “On” is selected for “Record Lat/Long”. Remember that when you hand such
image data over to another person or publish it on the Internet or via any other
electronic means, the location information is included with the image data you hand
over or publish. If you do not want location information made public with your
image, use the “Delete Site Info” command (page 109) to delete it from the image,
or do not record location information when you shoot the original snapshot or
movie.
You can select from among approximately 1 million place names (country names,
landmark names) in camera memory and insert one into your image data (snapshots
and movies).
1. In the REC mode, point the camera at the
subject.
Based on the measurement of your current location
(latitude and longitude), the camera will display a
candidate place name (country name, landmark
name).
2. Use [4] and [6] to select the place name you want to insert into the
image data.
• There can be up to six candidates for a place name.
• No place name will be inserted when “– – –” (blank) is displayed for the place
name.
• If you select “– – –” (blank), the place name candidate display will disappear
from the display after about two seconds. Pressing [4] or [6] at this time will
cause the place name candidate display to reappear.
• If a place name is too long to fit on the display, it will scroll on the display.
3. Press the shutter button (if you are shooting a snapshot) or [0] (Movie)
(if you are shooting a movie).
This will record the image along with the place name.
